Greetings, pup heads! How is everyone feeling this fine Hump Day? We hope well! Today we thought we'd pay a special tribute to all of our senior doggos out there. Everyone loves a good puppy moment because you get to train them, love them, and care for them from early on. You get to experience life all over again but this time, through the eyes of a hyper four-legged liddo doggo. And don't get us wrong, it's great and everything but the bond one has with a senior dog is on a whole other level. 

Despite being a little bit slower and less active, senior doggos have so much to offer. For one, their absolute and unconditional love. In comparison to puppies, you don't need to prove your love to them because they already know, and they reciprocate times 10. Anywho, we've collected 18 photos of senior doggos full of love, life, and light from a recent Twitter thread. We hope you enjoy!

    They may be senior citizens, but those are some good damn puppy dog eyes. We can just tell that they have their hoomans wrapped around their little paws, always getting what they want and when they want it. As they should!

    This is incredibly adorable and heartwarming! We're always so happy to hear stories of people doing their absolute best to make sure their senior doggos don't feel too senior. Of course, they realize they can't exercise as much but due to the stroller, he isn't missing any of the fun.
